I assume the problem is:
\n" ); document.write( "Express f(x) in the form $\"f%28x%29=q%28x%29%28x-k%29%2Br\"$ for $\"f%28x%29+=+-3x%5E3+%2B+5x+-6\"$ for $\"k=+-1\"$

\n" ); document.write( "The easy way to do this is with synthetic division:
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "-1 |   -3   0   5   -6\r\n" );
document.write( "----        3  -3   -2              \r\n" );
document.write( "      ----------------\r\n" );
document.write( "       -3   3   2   -8\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "So
\n" ); document.write( " $\"f%28x%29+=+%28-3x%5E2+%2B3x+%2B+2%29%28x+-+%28-1%29%29+%2B+-8\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
